I think probably all of my determination and eagerness to want to play professional sport came from my family.
All I care is that my family, and my loved ones, understand me. Or that they understand me to a degree – I don’t understand me very much. And I don’t need the world to understand me. That is the most egocentric thing.
Parents, not governments, should decide what is best for their family.
In Turkey, you’re not allowed to be left alone in the hospital. The nurse teaches the family how to do things, and somebody is always there with the patient.
My films are always concerned with family, friendship, honor, and patriotism.
I have never wanted a family. I don’t believe in marriage, though I obviously believe it should be legal for everyone who wants to do it. But it is not something I believe in, nor do the characters in my book, nor do any of my friends.
I found strength in what hurt me. And in my family – that’s my strength as well. I’m truly grateful to be hurt as many times as I have, because I’m happy!
I love my family, I’ll do anything for them.
I’m Ifa. I grew up practicing Ifa, my mom is Ifa, my whole family is Ifa.
I grew up in a Chinese family where the parents’ No. 1 priority is the kids’ education.

I don’t come from a family that had the money to put me through college, so I left school with $100,000 in student loan debt.
I like to be with my friends and my family, listen to music and read books. Things like that relax me.
The Hindu marriage may be described as the union of two families. In this union, there is no room for petty ambitions and personal ego-trips. What is involved is love for the entire family that one is marrying into.
Leave the matter of religion to the family altar, the church, and the private school, supported entirely by private contributions. Keep the church and state forever separate.
My sister-in-law, my mother, grandmother, and the entire family have been the biggest support for me.
I loved to do sports when I was young. We were on a family holiday and went sailing. I just loved it. And there, you can say, life began to change for me.
I have had a simple life. I have amazing support from family, a great set of friends; financially and emotionally, I have been quite balanced.
I’m driven by my passion – my family, my philanthropy, and the New England Patriots winning. That’s my life.
All I can say is Mike Lee is an embarrassment to the state of Utah. He’s been a tremendous embarrassment to our family, to our state, to our country to have him as a U.S. senator.
I kind of had that Parma, Ohio, mentality that after high school, you go to college. Then after college, you get a job; then you get a family. And after that, you just stick around Parma.
I was going to be a chemical engineer – I was a science nerd – that was the plan. I secretly applied to USC and NYU and got a scholarship to go to NYU based on a dumb animated short I made. It was a huge shock to me and my family.
Everybody in our family studied a musical instrument. My father was really big on that. Somehow I only took a year or two of piano lessons and I convinced my father to let me take dancing lessons.
Being a conservative union member is almost like being an actor in Hollywood: You don’t dare say it, or you might be injured on the job, or you might be laid off, or your family might have something happen to them.
